As the start date of the new season of the Chinese Super League is approaching, whether the former "eight champions" Guangzhou team can continue to survive is undoubtedly the focus of attention from the outside world. On the evening of April 4, Beijing time, the well-known reporter Wang Wei introduced the latest situation of the Guangzhou (Evergrande) team. The famous reporter revealed that the Guangzhou team, like the Guangzhou city team in the same city, has been in arrears for 8 months. However, Guangzhou is the only club in the current 18 detachments of the Chinese Super League to agree with the players on the amount of salary arrears.
Previously, when the Chinese Football Association announced the solution to wage arrears, it set up three time nodes of July 31, October 31 and December 31. Clubs must repay a certain percentage of their wage arrears at each point in time. At the first point in time, the settlement of unpaid wages is not less than 30% of the total amount. The second point in time will resolve the wage arrears not less than 70% of the total amount, and the third point of wage arrears will be resolved in full.
Although the parent company of guangzhou is still in trouble, it can reach an agreement with the players on the amount of salary arrears, which also means that they are likely to continue to stand in the Chinese Super League in the new season. The survival of the team and the retention of the core players in the team are also the focus of the fans' attention. Up to now, except for a few naturalized players and veterans who are preparing to retire, the vast majority of Guangzhou teams still have no news of transfers.
It is reported that the Guangzhou team has stopped the transfer of all players. Because there are already players going to the Chinese Football Association for arbitration, the Guangzhou team chooses to refuse to let players who still have contracts leave the team freely. Any club that wants to bring in Guangzhou players still needs to pay a transfer fee, so many Chinese Super League clubs interested in Guangzhou may abandon the idea of introduction. After Guangzhou suspended all player transfers, the club and the players agreed on the amount of salary owed. Perhaps in the new season, Guangzhou will not face too many core player losses.
